Duke Street is a road running through the town centre and Hindpool area of Barrow-in-Furness, England. Stretching almost one mile from east to west it connects two major A roads as well as intersecting Abbey Road roughly midway. Designed by Sir James Ramsden as the centrepiece of the 19th century planned town of Barrow, Duke Street is home to two squares (Ramsden Square and Schneider Square) alongside many listed buildings including Barrow Town Hall and the Main Public Library. The Forumtwentyeight performing arts centre and Craven Park Stadium (home of the rugby league side Barrow Raiders) are also located on Duke Street.
